Forecasts

Melody Of Life (5/2), Excel Power (7/2), Inigo Jones (7/2), Karibana (5/1), Bowland Park (9/1), Liberation Point (12/1), Arctician (12/1), River Dawn (12/1)

One final chance is given to INIGO JONES back at the scene of his maiden win last spring. Melody of Life arrives in form and has won on AW before so he's feared most ahead of Karibana, who hasn't been out of the first 3 in 6 previous visits here.
